Beverly Hills Formula// Review

For those of you who don't know, Beverly Hills Formula is a dental health care/toothpaste brand and you can find their website here: http://www.beverlyhillsformula.com/perfect-white/


I know what you might be thinking, what does toothpaste have to do with beauty? Well the answer is everything! For starters, a great smile can make you look a million times better, but what is a great smile without sparkling white teeth?

If you're an avid tea drinker like me, after you power through your 10th cuppa, the last thing on your mind is probably 'I wonder if this is going to stain my teeth?'. The truth is, every time you drink tea or fizzy drinks or anything corrosive, it stains your teeth, which is never a good look.

However, I think I may of found your miracle saviour in the form of the new Beverly Hills Formula Perfect White Black Toothpaste. Yes, I know it may seem weird because it is a black toothpaste for whitening the teeth, but trust me, this stuff is so good! The black is just the charcoal which is an active stain remover.

The best thing about this toothpaste is that you see results instantly, after only using it for 2 days, i began to receive compliments about how white my teeth were looking, which made me realise how fats the product gets to work. It is powerful without being abbrasive and isn't gritty like most whitening toothpastes. Another bonus is that it gives you minty fresh breath for hours on end!

This product isn't actually out in stores yet, but as soon as it is, I highly reccomend that you pick up a tube. Beverly Hills Formula is available in Superdrug from just £2.99, so is really affordable too :)

I will be doing a HUGE New Years Giveaway which will include 2 tubes of their perfect white black toothpaste, so keep a lookout for that!

Beauty UK Review

Hi guys! Now, I was always a bit of a 'makeup snob', thinking that products are only worth buying if they cost at least £15. Anything less is going to be bad quality right? WRONG! You can find some amazing makeup and other cosmetics for a fraction of the price in the drugstore, and the brand Beauty UK (available in Superdrug) just goes to show this!

You can find their website here: http://www.beautyukcosmetics.com

I tried out the lipstick in the shade Cupcake and the eyeshadow/eyeliner palette in Amazon. I was so impressed at the quality of both of these products.

To start off with, the eyeshadow and gel liner palette (RRP £3.99) is an absolute bargain. Not only does this lovely set cost less than a fiver, but the quality is amazing too. All 6 eyeshadows are soooo pigmented! And the gel liners glide on really smooth too. I was even impressed with the double ended brush for application. So there are 6 shades, a shimmery bronze, a lighter bronze/gold shade, a deep purpley brown, a glittery white, an orange/rust colour and a dark grey shade. The gel liners are black and brown. All 6 of these shades are so wearable, especially for the holiday season because they're so shimmery and warm toned. They really bring out my green eyes so I tried a look using all the colours and I love it! 

I really love the lipstick too! Again, it's very pigmented which is great. I started off by exfoliating my lips with sugar so there was no dry skin on my lips, I then lightly dabbed the lipstick all over and blended it out with my finger. I really love this colour, a pale 'barbie' pink, as it provides an alternative to the classic red lip at Christmas time. It smells slightly minty which is a nice touch and lasted really well on the lips.

Overall, I am so impressed with the products I have tried and I will definitely be picking up some more makeup from their brand in the future!
